Chapter 394 Strong Wine From The General
Nathan smiled and without replying to Penny.
At this moment, his phone rang. It was a call from Colin Dunne.
Usually, Colin would never call and disturb Nathan if there wasn't anything serious.
Nathan frowned and picked up the call, "What's up?"
Colin's respectful voice came from the other end of the line, "Master, the governor Patrick Ward has
arrived for ground inspection. Knowing you're in Channing, he has requested to meet with you. Would
you be available to meet with him?”
Patrick Ward was the governor, so he was considered someone very important.
But Nathan replied indifferently, "I'm not free!"
"Very well," answered Colin.
Nathan was going to hang up when he suddenly thought of something and
changed his mind. "Wait!"
Colin was startled. "Is there anything else you need, Master?"
Nathan narrowed his eyes and said, "I've decided to meet with him. Inform Patrick Ward and Russell
Crow that I will be treating them to a meal.”
"Yes, sir," answered Colin.
Nathan treated Patrick and Russell to a meal at Cloud Palace, which was located on the highest level
of the Axis of Channing.
Thomas Dunn, the boss of Cloud Palace, was so bowled over by their presence that he closed his
restaurant to other customers for the day and only served Nathan, the governor and the mayor.
Inside the private room, a few dishes of delectable food were laid out on the table.
There weren't many dishes, but each of them was prepared to perfection. The taste of each dish was of
the highest
quality.
The drinks were contained inside an ordinary bottles with four words printed on them that stood out
particularly: [North Army Special Wine],
Today, Nathan was the one treating the Mayor, Russell Crow and the Governor, Patrick Ward to a meal.
Other than Nathan, Patrick and Russell, the entire room was empty except for Colin who took on the
role of serving them.
Patrick Ward was around fifty years old. He looked gentle and kindly.
At this moment, he lifted up his wine glass in a respectful manner and smiled at Nathan, saying,
"General, I am here in Channing this time for an inspection and heard that you're here. So I requested
to meet with you. I hope you don't mind. Let me make a toast to you!"
Seeing this, Russell too hurriedly lifted his glass and toasted to Nathan as well.
Although he felt that he was an important figure in Channing, but he also knew he was small fry before
them.
So he decided to smile along with them and toast whenever he should. He would not speak unless
spoken to.
Patrick and Russell both toasted to Nathan, but the latter did not lift up his glass. Instead, he looked at
Patrick intently and said, "Ward, you're not being honest! If my guess is right, you're not actually here
for an inspection but to look for me!"
Hearing this, Patrick looked awkward and admitted, "General, you're as sharp as ever. You're right, I
came here to look for you. I've admired you for a long time, so when I knew you're here in the South, I
rushed all the way here to meet you."
Nathan smiled. "Ward, you're still not being honest."
Patrick was perplexed. "What do you mean?”
Only when Russell and Colin heard this did they realize the reason behind Patrick's visit to Channing.
Patrick's face was filled with embarrassment. He laughed dryly and said, "Haha, I knew that I can't hide
anything from the General!"
Nathan smiled and made a toast with Patrick and Russell.novelbin
The wine was North Army's Special Wine. It was of the highest quality, but it also had a very high
alcohol content.
Patrick had just gulped a glass of it down when he felt his stomach was on fire. His face flushed a deep
red and sweat rained down his forehead as he shouted in exhilaration, "General, your wine is really
strong! It's great!" New chapter avаilable o? Dram?nоvels.cом
Hearing Nathan say that he didn't want to him to stand on ceremony, Patrick thought that this meant
that he wanted them to be friends.
It would be such an honor to be friends with the General!
But Patrick wasn't stupid. He didn't dare to call Nathan as just 'Cross', so he said in a knowing way,
"Alright, then I'll call you as Master Cross."
